Dear Parents and Siblings,

Now it is my turn to write. My little wife has 4 weeks of vacation, so she has time to write now. I think her handwriting is easier to read than mine. I sometimes think that my hand is too heavy from all the heavy work. I have been working steadily here as a tool and die maker for a company named Visking. We build machines that make sausage casings. I make $32 a week, and we can get by on that. We are having a very hot summer here. Some nights, we can’t sleep because of the heat. But the farmers bear the brunt of the heat and drought.

Your son and brother Willy
